How do you know if an object is going to be attracted to a magnet?

Metals and other magnets are the only objects that are attracted to magnets.
However, many metals are NOT attracted to magnets. Copper, stainless steel, brass, gold, silver, zinc, and aluminum are a few metals that are NOT attracted to magnets.
The best way to discover if the object will be attracted to a magnet is to introduce it to a magnet.

Why is important to know the density of an object?
so you know how much an object is denser compared to another object.
Which end of a magnet will pick up a copper rod?
All the magnets we know of yet, have two ends, a north pole and a south pole. So each end of a magnet will attract poles of the opposite polarity, and will repel poles of similar polarity. Some math suggest the existence of monopoles, but these have yet to be discovered. But they are sometimes good fodder for sci-fi.
When you hear about an object with zero resistance you know that the object?
I know that the object is made of a substance that can become superconducting at low temperature, and that the object is being kept very cold.
How can you test if a material is magnetic?
Using a compass; You move the compass around the object and if the hand in the compass goes mad, then it is a magnet To test how something is magnetic: See if it sticks to a magnet. It will only be magnetic if it is made from nickle, iron or cobalt. Steel is also magnetic because it is made mostly from iron. Hope this helps x
What metal has a dull appearance allows electric current to pass can be beaten into a flat shape without breaking and is attracted to magnet?
i know
How do you know if a 1972 Canada Dollar is silver?
Standard circulation strikes are made of almost pure nickel so they'll be attracted to a magnet. In addition the coins will have a slightly darker appearance similar to US nickel coins. Proof issues are part silver and won't be attracted to a magnet. These coins would normally be in protective packaging because they were never intended to circulate.
What is 94.3488 kg in mass?
If you are asking for a specific object then I am sorry I do not know. But I do know that any kind of mass (Cotton wool or lead) can be attracted by gravity to the center of the earth with a force of 94.3488 kg, if the object contains this amount of mass.
Why does a compass point in different directions?

How can a compass be used to check the strength of an electromagnet?
see if a magnet will stick to it someone who knows stuff about magnets please improve this answer. I myself do not know because a magnet will not stick to a very weak magnet but it is still magnetic. EDIT why would you answer if you don't know the answer? You stroke a bar magnet on the material and after a while it either becomes magnetic or not. unless its already magnetic which you would know straight away because it would stick to the bar magnet. sorry if any of my answer doesnt make much sense ... hope i helped someone

Is it copper or what magnetic force around a magnet?
The magnetic force around a magnet can be a lot of things. Just some things are stronger and some are less strong. Copper is absolutely not magnetic at all, you can experiment that by trying to pick up a penny with a magnet. I am not sure what is the magnetic part of a magnet, but I think it might be close to iron. Something like that. I do know though what is attracted to magnets. Iron, bolt, paper clips, and the metal part on scissors.
How you know if an object has more electrons or protons?
If you put an electric charge of known magnitude near the object, then it will either be attracted to the charge or repelled away from the charge. They will have the same charge if repulsion is observed or different charges if attraction is observed.
